[1. The Bay.]
Waking up in a strange place is exactly what Dray expected. After all, he has been hiding from the Guardians the night before. But now everything it's far more humid than he remembers and it doesn't look like a pit house, he can smell the salt in the air and that's uncommon in the valley. He notices the box and its contents only raise more questions than answers. He puts the necklace on immediately, not because its importance dawns on Dray but because he likes jewels and shiny things. He's never had much and he takes the box with him as he walks outside the cave.
Things must have changed a lot in Arcadia these last 10 years, Dray doesn't remember the valley having such a big lake. He can't even see the shore on the other side! But it doesn't matter because it's water and he hasn't had the chance to swim in a long, long time. Dropping the box on the sand, he run towards the waves with a manic grin on his face, tail swinging behind him.

[After the incomprehensible text, the device switches to video when the right button gets hit by accident. What can be seen on the screen is mostly just blackness and what seems to be a....giant tongue. And very sharp fangs, closing upon the camera. There's a crunching noise, a loud beep and then all that can be seen is a blur.
Dray got started and stopped gnawing on the communicator when it made an angry noise at him. Perhaps the weird thing is alive. He peers down at it and finally, a steady image can be seen. It's not all clear if the person looking down at the camera is male or female but it's sure covered in light golden hair and has two big ears on its head.]

[2. Around the cities.]
He's learned a bit more about the place he's in, not his world apparently, but Dray doesn't understand what sort of magic could have brought him here, and why. The creatures he can see are strange, bodies hairless like the elves of the high mountains but most of their skins look pale as a sheet. They're weird and he keeps his distance, moving quietly in the shadows and climbing to trees if he sees them.
Even the trees are wrong, though. Some are bare, made of metal and have a light at the top, like angry fireflies in the deep of the night. Dray is currently trying to climb one of those to see what's the light up there.
[3.Fai's cat cafe.]
Dray has mostly been avoiding everyone but when he spots what's inside the cafe, he can't help himself. It's been a while seen he's seen so many babies together, playing and purring and so unprotected, and he's immediately drawn to them.
He hugs the nearest cat, brings it to his chest and nuzzles the other feline, heart hurting. Dray misses his own baby, Arabel, but he hasn't managed to find him in this strange new world just yet.

I'm not injured...I thought maybe there was some food inside the metal box, I wasn't trying to eat you. [Since he's assuming Cassian is INSIDE the communicator.]

no subject
Eh...this is a bit like what oracles and witches use to see the future? I've heard stories.
no subject
Something like that? But rather, it lets you see my image though I'm in a different place. If you have only just arrived, then you're in Genessia. I'm in Attleton, a completely different town.
no subject
So you are not inside the box. None of those names sound familiar but I've been away from home for a long time. I didn't expect Arcadia to change that much.
Can I ask what you are?
no subject
You didn't listen to the hologram, did you?
[ Sigh. So much weary disapproval. ]
I don't know Arcadia, but I doubt that's where you are. We have all been kidnapped. You're in Genessia City.
no subject
[Dray has the decency to blush slightly, even if he's frowning.]
I don't know what's that. I've been kidnapped before, this isn't usually how it goes. Why aren't we locked in cells? And no one's hurting us?
[He pokes the communicator with a claw-like finger.]
